Animal Shortcuts Project

Please remember that all animal facts (12 in all) are due this Friday.  Along with the twelve facts, please help your child create a list of 10 words associated with the animal.  I will need this list edited.  I have already signed up for the computer lab for Friday to show the children how to create a wordsearch.  If a student does not bring in their work, they will not have this part of the project done.  This will impact their grade.  This project is a major part of their science for this quarter.  There is not any extra time to sign up in the lab so it is imperative that this deadline be met. All students have had this paper for over a week now and I have not assigned homework for this week in order to allow them time to finish.  Thanks for your help.

A note from the nurse

If your child has any medications in the clinic, please be advised that it is your responsibility to pick them up.  Medications will not be sent home via the children.  Thank you for your help in this matter.

Enrollment forms

On Friday, I will be sending home enrollment forms to each family.  These papers are extremely important.  Please review all information and make changes where applicable.  YOU MUST SIGN, PRINT, AND DATE THE BACK OF THE FORM BEFORE RETURNING IT ALONG WITH POSTAGE.  If you do not return the form, your child will not be enrolled for next year and will not be placed in a classroom.  Even if you are looping, this paper is needed to reserve your spot in my room for next year. We will be working on placement next week, so please return the envelope ASAP.  I appreciate your attention to this matter.

Zoo trip

I wanted to say thank you to the parents who volunteered their time today for our trip to the zoo.  Tomorrow will be filled with many fun activities based on our experience today.  The children seemed to really enjoy it.  Hope it strikes up some wonderful conversations tonight.

Sorry about the error...

I just read over my blog and realized that when I gave you my home e-mail address I wrote the school one instead.  Sorry it was late when I was typing that post so here it is...

Our study of Mexico

We will be studying Mexico through rotations starting May 6 and continuing through May 8.  We will learn about geography, clothing, food, dance, holidays, rainforest animals, and celebrations.  I am in need of a bag of candy to be placed inside of a pinata.  It needs to be bite sized individually wrapped items. If you can donate this for our rotations, please contact me.  I also need for each child to bring in a brown grocery bag.  Please send in the bag by next Friday.  Thanks!!!  I mean muchas gracias amigos!!!

Field Day!!!

Field Day will be May 14 from 9:00 until 11:00.  We are in need of 5-6 parent volunteers.  If you would be willing to donate your time for this fun event please contact me via e-mail.  Once again my e-mail address is:

Some of you have commented that at times you have experienced difficulty contacting me through my school address.  I thought I would also give you my home e-mail as well.

Square One Art

Square One Art orders were delivered today and were sent home with your child. If you did not receive your order, please contact Mrs. Partow. By the way.....we have some real Picassos in our class.

Author's Tea

Our author's tea will be held on May 21. Author's Tea is a day where parents and visitors are welcome to come into our classrooms and listen to a story written by each child. Each student will take home a bound copy of their story to keep! Thanks to Mrs. Antoci and Mrs. Martin for all their hard work in preparing our stories. I have scheduled this to be held in the morning. Students will be creating invitations for this so look for all the juicy details to come home at the beginning of next week.

Earth Day

Earth Day is Tuesday April 22 (the same day as Jessica's birthday). We will be discussing ways to help the Earth this week. Please talk with your children about what they have learned about this important topic.
